HS Code Search

The reference database is curated from the ITC-HS schedule. Confirm classification with the customs tariff or your CHA.

Find the ITC-HS code for your product by typing a code number or a keyword like "rice", "shrimp" or "carpets". Filter by section for faster results. This is a curated reference subset of the HS nomenclature — always verify the exact 8-digit code on the DGFT or CBIC portal before filing.

Quick Answer: How do you find the right HS code?

Search your product keyword or 4-digit heading above — the first 2 digits are the chapter, 4 the heading, 6 the worldwide sub-heading, and India’s ITC-HS adds 2 more for the 8-digit code your shipping bill and RoDTEP claim need. Pick the closest heading here, then confirm the exact 8-digit code and duty on the CBIC tariff before filing — or send us the product description and our classification desk will do it for you.

Verify before you file (September 2026): The ITC-HS schedule is amended with each Finance Act and DGFT policy notification, and HS 2022 renamed several headings. A heading that points you correctly today can still split into 8-digit lines with different duty, RoDTEP rates or policy conditions. Always verify on the CBIC ICEGATE tariff portal or with your CHA before filing the shipping bill.

Tip: press / to jump into search and Esc to clear. Multi-word queries like “leather bag” work, and typos like “coton” suggest “cotton”.

Important: HS codes are harmonised to 6 digits worldwide. India's ITC-HS schedule adds 2 more digits (8-digit codes) with country-specific sub-headings. Use the official CBIC and DGFT portals to confirm the exact 8-digit code and duty rates for your product.
